Ken Hendricksen American Flag Spirit
Oil on canvas 36" x 48"

Could be man or woman of any nationality under the flag. The sun is for soul, it's life force. The olive branch is for peace, which is always offered first. The arrows are to be used only if needed. Also the flag sky asks a question, and that is: Is that sun rising or setting?

In 1864 Civil War photographers Jacob Coonley and George Barnard were in Nashville and managed to get some interesting images of the City of Nashville and surrounding area. On the 15th and 16th of December there is a battle going on when some of these images were taken.
Made from LOC images, this little pictorial shows what happen to the Lincoln conspirators at the end of the bloodletting Civil War era. All photos have been cleaned-up and some regarding the hanging of the conspirators on July 7th, 1865 have been modified to make the movie flow.
